About Articles Directories. We all know that in general, 2 links are OK on the Author/Resource Box. For SEO matters it is better to link to ONLY one website? Any problem with two differents links targeting two different websites? Of course I'm talking about the same article and Resource Box, and the two diferent sites are related to the same industry. Thanks
There is no problem with linking to more than one website in your article resource box. Just ensure those websites still have fairly unique link profiles, otherwise Google may notice the similar linking patterns and penalize your websites. This situation sometimes happens when you market multiple websites and get lazy building links for each website from all the same pages.
The rules on this vary according to the person choosing to use the article. Some only allow you to place one link to one URL. Some allow two, and others allow three. If the question is in regards to seo, it is only a matter of matching your article content to the topic of the website you want to link to. The publishers who use the content I distribute state, as a general rule, suggest that you can use three links. I recommend to my clients up to three links, but one of them to be the plain text URL without any keywords, just in case someone copies-and-pastes directly from the browser window. If all of your links are keyworded, and someone copies from the browser, you could lose all of your links potentially. But if you include one link in a plain text format, then you will always have your URL (possibly even linked) following your articles everywhere it goes. I have linked to 2-3 sites in the author resource box myself. It definitely depends on the article content and its relevance to the sites I am linking.
